The tragedy of life

I would like to get reactions to the following quote by Jean Renoir: 

The tragedy of life is that everyone has his reasons.

Steve Jobs

I saw a special on Steve Jobs Monday night.  He was talking and it was broken into three parts.  I think in the following order.

"When you grow up you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and that your life is to live your life inside the world try not to bash into the walls too much.  Have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money." 

...

"Life can be much broader.  Once you discover one simple fact and that is everything around you that you call life was made up by people who  were no smarter than you."

...

"The minute you realize that you can poke life - that you can push in and something will pop out the other side.  That you could mold - it that you could change it."  pause  "When you realize that you can change life.  That's maybe the most important thing."

Question:  "Suppose that you believe this and you have children.  Should you tell them about the last two paragraphs?"
